New Pictures!

Gabriel's school picture for this year--first grade. Isn't he cute? His teeth have come in since this picture, but he is still cute. Jacob's picture would also be up here, but he didn't like his picture and didn't want me to buy them. Go figure.

Gabriel drew this picture for me this week. I haven't been feeling very good. I'm not sure if this is supposed to be me or not. I just love getting artwork from my kids.

Well, I have no choice. I have to get my picture taken each year. Unfortunately, my picture will be in the yearbook FOREVER. So, if for instance I look terrible, then it will be recorded in thousands of yearbooks forever. :O)

I love this picture of mom and dad. They just got them back yesterday and I was one of the first people to get a copy. They look so great!

Ok. So my house finally appeared on the real estate website. I need to figure out a way to get this thing sold. If you have any bright ideas, let me know. Here is the link to the house:

Yuck--is it only Tuesday?

I have been so tired lately. The kids are involved in Reggie's football team. They are gone all weekend and many nights during the week. I usually stay home. I don't understand or enjoy football. I like watching Gabe play though. I am very frustrated with my job lately. The kids are plain lazy. They don't want to do anything and are very vocal about their disgust. I can't wait for Thanksgiving break--everyone needs a break. I am at my limit for complaining and people asking me why. "Why do I have to do this?" "Why this, why that" I want to tell them to kiss my *** butt :O) Anyway, I am thinking about getting my Master's degree soon so I can teach college. I know I am always complaining about my job, but sometimes I feel like these kids are sucking out all of my spirit. All of the stuff I brought to the classroom--all the excitement and spirit is slowing dwindling out.

I have been trying some new technology in the classroom for the last few days. It went a little slow at first, but once I figured out what I was doing, it went well. The kids were patient though. We are working on the research paper--fun fun fun. The paper is on William Shakespeare--someone who I know a lot about. The kids don't like him, but who cares? I just act like "I CAN'T HEAR THEM!"

We still have our house on the market and a few people have come to look, but no bites. We will see. We would like to sell before the end of the year. It would be nice to have one more Christmas in the house, but we will see...

Here is a pic of our house:

Maybe we are asking for too much money???

Just kidding.
